Lyrics

It takes me far too long
Too long to take her hand
But then she takes me
Takes me far
Far away from it all
And then I see it
Beauty too familiar
A rose-tinted mirror
She's naked on the floor
But she's not hiding
Never is she frightened
I can't take my eyes off
Finally I'm whole
Jil
Jil
Jil
Jil
Jil
Jil
And she whispers something in my ear
That she will hold me in her arms till the fear goes
She says that I've forgotten when we here
When we were climbing up the hill for some water
Then we saw it
Depression and destruction
To young an introduction
My brain pulled us apart
I started slipping
Falling down the hill and
Jil could only witness
As I hit my head -
Black
Jil
I remember
I remember
I remember
We were once a singularity
Before time tore us apart
But now there is a schism between my brain and my heart
A canyon of suppression
For my brain thought it safer
That I abandoned my heart
When we crashed in that crater
But now, years later, through wisdom and will
My heart has personified and come to me as Jil
Though we are scarred and bruised
Broken and used
She restores my memory
And together we fuse
But as I dig up her grave
I uncover a curse
For I find to get better
I must become worse
I will not recover if just my heart takes a stand
I have to take action, from my heart to my hand
(Wisdom is bleak, if i cannot get her
My heart was asleep, but now I am better)
Am I my brain?
And she my heart?
Fractured by pain
But there from the start
Am I my brain?
And she my heart?
Fractured by pain
But there from the start
Am I my brain?
And she my heart?
Fractured by pain
But there from the start
Am I just a brain?
Please take this pain away
Wish I was her
Sadly, I'm not
But maybe I'm both
Would that be enough?
I'm making sense of this pain
When I'm with my heart
She is my heart
She is my heart
She is my heart
Jil is my heart
